Updating from an earlier version

If you have skipped the migration or you have to make modifications to the previous installation that has to be migrated, do the following:

  1. Stop the server.

  2. Save settings by copying the files cf_webapp_root/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib/neo-*.xml (of previous installation) to a directory named cfXsettings (in which X is the earlier version of ColdFusion) in the cf_webapp_new_installation_root_directory/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib directory.

  3. Edit the ColdFusion 9 cfusion/lib/adminconfig.xml file by setting the value of the runmigrationwizard and the migratecfX (in which X is the earlier version of ColdFusion) switch to true.

  4. Restart the ColdFusion 9 application.

  5. Browse to ColdFusion Administrator to run the migration wizard.
